hyPLANK

hyPLANK is a strong lightweight LVL scaffold plank. The defined structural properties of LVL and strict quality control processes ensure a plank that meets the performance requirements of AS 1577 Scaffold Planks

hyPLANK

hyPLANK is a strong yet lightweight laminated veneer lumber (LVL) scaffold plank. The defined structural properties of LVL and strict quality control processes ensure safe and consistent performance and mean that hyPLANK has significantly higher structural reliability than sawn timber. This makes hyPLANK ideal to use in place of conventional timber, and where modular systems cannot accommodate the size and shape of the scaffolding requirement. hyPLANK is also used to considerable advantage where corrosion is a hazard for metal planks.

Features & Benefits

hyPLANK:

  • Manufactured from sustainably grown NZ plantation pine
  • Individually proof tested for safety & performance
  • Tough and long lasting, especially in corrosive environments
  • Wax emulsion end seal reduces moisture ingress
  • Lightweight and versatile
  • Stringent quality control – EWPAA certified
  • Available FSC™ CoC Certified on request (Certificate Number: SCS-COC-001319)

 

Compliance & Standards

hyPLANK is manufactured in accordance with AS/NZS 4357-2005, Structural laminated veneer lumber and meeting the performance requirements for scaffold planks specified in AS 1577 – 1993, Scaffold planks.

All hyPLANK is manufactured using an ‘A’ Bond with less than 0.3mg/l Formaldehyde (equivalent to Super E0) emissions from the final product.
